Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi will not play together anymore after the star from Argentina decided to sign for Inter Miami in the MLS. It was a bittersweet ending for a duo destined to dominate in Europe.
However, things didnāt work out well at Paris Saint-Germain as the French club couldnāt succeed at the Champions League. Messi was the one to blame according to fans, especially after the epic rivalry with Mbappe in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
So, at least during this tenure with PSG, Kylian Mbappe was never seen as a big friend of Lionel Messi. In fact, Neymar remained the closest person to him. Now, in a shocking turn of events, things might have been a little different.

āHappy birthday, legend. I wish you the best possible day with your family and friends. Thanks for these two years together in Paris. I learned a lot from you as a player, teammate, rival and man. Just for that Iām thankful. Good luck in your new adventure.ā
Mbappe accompanied the heartfelt message with a picture taken during the final at the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The French star and Messi appear holding hands near midfield. This is just a moment never seen before in the relationship between them.
